Makita Launched XBU03 Blower
Makita recently launched the XBU03 blower that provides instant start-up for quick clean-up applications.
The Makita XBU03 blower is the most powerful in its class. Power, measured using both air velocity and air volume to determine the blowing force, is an industry standard measurement. The Makita built BL brushless motor delivers up to 459 CFM and 116 MPH.
A user controls power and manages run time with the variable speed trigger. A new feature for any Makita blower is the cruise control lever and speed lock. The variable speed trigger is used for more power while the cruise control speed lock is engaged.
Additionally, the cordless blower weighs 6.5 lbs. with one 18V LXT battery. Less weight provides increased mobility and is immediately apparent in the user’s hand.
Other features include an in-line fan design to provide better balance and improved ergonomics. The pipe is extended closer to the ground for improved operator comfort. A rubberized soft grip also offers increased comfort. The housing bottom has a hole so that the blower can be easily hung in storage.
